Let's break into a shop, turn over their trash cans, then disassemble their electronic waste in an orderly fashion for recycling for the greater benefit of society!!

You jest but I wish we'd do it to most airports, rain my sledgehammer down their fighterjet in holy wrath, one helicopter per hospital is enough cyberdjihad ftw.

What about those hospitals that take care of large regions where an ambulance might not be able to, I feel like hospitals in those regions should have more than one helicopter.

And smashing shit in an airport with a sledgehammer sounds like it would be a lot of fun.


Also speaking of planes I've always wanted to get an old one and make a house inside of it.

Until then, there's always Red Faction Guerilla.

There is enough rural hospitals that don't have helicopters, like 1 on average or median is more what I envision. But it's not sexy to distinguish precisely when you're swinging a sledgehammer.

I'll probably publish a few short stories in my hard SF setting soon.

Makes sense the hospital near me doesn't have one.

I'll probably publish a few short stories in my hard SF setting soon.

I originally read that as "hard San Francisco setting", and could only imagine the implications.

So when does it get to the part where someone gets hit by a street car then attacked by hobos?

I have lived in SF for about 7 years now and I have yet to be struck by a streetcar or mauled by hobos, alone or in combination.

There are a lot of streetcars and hobos, however, so maybe it's just a matter of time.

Just be sure to wear padded armour to protect your self in the event of ether happening.

If I worked in a clinic administering vaccines I could make kids cry every day and also actually help save a lot of lives. It's honestly the perfect job.

The real concern is when you get on a streetcar with a bunch of angry hobos on it. There's only so much room.

Also I find it amusing so many people here have thoughts about San Francisco.
